2010-14 recall

FCA is recalling around 1.4 million cars worldwide because the airbags and seat belt pre-tensioners may not always work, depending on how the front impact sensor is wired and which control module is used.  FCA voluntarily started the recall after analyzing “field events,” and is aware of five related injuries and three related deaths.

The cars being recalled are the 2010 Chrysler Sebring, 2010-14 Dodge Avenger, 2011-14 Chrysler 200, and 2010-14 Dodge Caliber, Jeep Compass, and Jeep Patriot.

The recall also covers the 2010 Chrysler Cirrus and 2012-13 Lancia Flavia, outside the US. The recall does not yet appear on the government safercar.gov site.
